Damn Platonism! Concrete Persons' Skin, Flesh and Bodies: Three Phases of a Won Battle in Miquel Àngel Riera's poetry

The aim of this article is to show how, throughout M. A. Riera's poetry, an evident anti-metaphysical sensibility can be easily detected, which in its turn makes the poet to praise concrete person's skin, flesh and bodies, thus avoiding any personal Platonic or idealistic experience of human love. In the author's opinion, an accurate reading of his poems makes us discover Plato and Platonism as one of the great responsible thinkers for the contempt of carnal love, which has been undoubtedly the origin of a real human pain as a result of denying the somatic side of eros.

"A Hard Battle to Fight": Natural Theology and the Dismal Science, 1820-1850

William Whewell's and Richard Jones's criticism of Jeremy Bentham's and David Ricardo's "dismal" views on the relation of theory and evidence in political economy was motivated by the former's views on the structuring role of natural theology for questions of method and evidence in the sciences, including political economy. In comparison, natural theology was for Richard Whately as structuring on these issues as it was for the Cambridge men. Whately's view on natural theology, however, conformed with the Ricardian predilection for theory over facts. The differences between the Cambridge men and Whately became manifest after (or better: during) the publication of Jones's book on rent in 1831 and led to a somewhat acerbic exchange of views on the role of definitions in science and the use of history for establishing scientific evidence. As far as political economy was concerned, Whately's stance carried the day in Victorian England.

Air-Sea Battle -konsepti John Wardenin Enemy as a System -teorian näkökulmasta

Tutkielman tavoitteena oli analysoida Air-Sea Battle -konseptia ja sen lähtökohtana ollutta viholliskuvaa John Wardenin Enemy as a System -teorian näkökulmasta julkisten asiakirjojen, raporttien ja artikkeleiden avulla. Tutkimusmenetelmänä on käytetty teoriaohjaavaa sisällönanalyysia. Tutkimusongelmaksi muodostui: ”Miten Air-Sea Battle -konsepti näyttäytyy Wardenin Enemy as a System -teorian näkökulmasta?” Tutkimuskysymyksien avulla pyrittiin lisäksi löytämään konseptin kehittämiseen johtaneita tekijöitä suurstrategisella tasolla, arvioimaan konseptin mukaista aseellisen voiman käyttöä sekä analysoimaan konseptia suhteessa Wardenin näkemyksiin sotilasstrategiasta. Wardenin Enemy as a System -teoria on esitelty tutkielman alkupuolella hyödyntäen alkuperäistekstejä, aiheesta kirjoitettuja tutkimuksia ja artikkeleita sekä sotataidollista kirjallisuutta. Air-Sea Battle -konseptia käsittelevän luvun aineisto on luokiteltu Wardenin neljän strategisen kysymyksen teemojen, eli tavoitteen, vaikuttamisen kohteiden, keinojen ja irtautumisen, mukaisesti. Tärkeimmät lähteet varsinaisen Air-Sea Battle -asiakirjan lisäksi olivat Yhdysvaltojen turvallisuus- ja sotilasstrategiaa määrittelevät dokumentit, tutkimuslaitosten julkaisemat raportit sekä aikakauslehtiartikkelit. Aineiston perusteella Yhdysvallat näkee tiettyjen valtioiden, kuten Kiinan, kehittyvät niin kutsutut anti-access/area denial -suorituskyvyt uhkana alueelliselle tasapainolle ja heidän kyvylleen ylläpitää sotilaallista läsnäoloa strategisesti merkittävillä alueilla. Air-Sea le -konseptin tavoitteena on määritellä ja kehittää suorituskyvyt, operatiiviset suunnitelmat ja toimintamallit, joiden mukaan toimivalla joukolla kyetään luomaan riittävä pelotevaikutus konfliktin ehkäisemiseksi tai säilyttämään toiminnanvapaus alueella sen muodostuessa.

The battle over deficits : the struggle to maintain Canada's social welfare state : a thesis /

Abstract This thesis seeks to answer a number of questions concerning the deficit and debt in Canada. It focuses pri.arily on the federal level of government but with SOBe discussion of provincial governaent policy as well. In ~997, Canada's federal debt caae close ro six hundred billion dollars - $594 billion or 74.4 % of Gross Do.estic Product (GDP) to be exact. The purpose of this theses is threefold: To find out why Canada accu.ulated such a debt, to discover if there is a so-called debt crisis; and to discover if it is possible to preserve Canada's national welfare state given the financial restraints that have been adopted by both federal and provincial governments. Politicians are torn between economist' two contrasting views regarding deficits: Neo-Keynesian and neo-conservative. The neoKeynesian school focuses al1llOst exclusively on the short term stability of the economy and tends to dismiss concerns regarding the level of debt. Neo conservatives focus almost exclusively on the perceived costs of growth in the national debt and are willing to forego any stabilization benefits to ensure that the debt is controlled. These polar view do have one thing in coa.on; both confix-. that deficits influence govermaent policies. Both of these econoBic theories will have far-reaching influences on the federal gover1lJlJent's decision-making process. These economic theories will be discussed throughout this thesis.

Accompanying caption from the Canadian Illustrated News, July 15, 1876: “We publish today a page of sketches consisting of the following battle fields in Ontario :--Lundy’s Lane where, without doubt, the hardest fought battle of 1812-15 took place, and in which more troops were engaged than in any other engagement of that war : the battle field of Stony Creek where the Canadians and Indians made a night attack on the Americans and achieved a victory over a greatly superior force and obliged the Americans to retreat back to the shelter of Old Fort George which was the scene of many engagements during the war. Beaver Dam battle field is just in the suburbs of the thriving village of Thorold, and the monument covers the remains of several soldiers whose bodies were unearthed during the building of the new Welland Canal at that place.”
